Hockley County · Slaughter field · Shut In · Vertical
Sundown Slaughter Unit #342 (API 42-219-34141) is a well in Hockley County operated by Bce-Mach Iii LLC, completed December 5, 1983 and listed as shut in on the RRC schedule, shut in March 1, 2026.
The RRC has issued one drilling permit, issued November 4, 1983, permitted to 5,030 ft.
It was permitted by Texaco Inc. and has since transferred to Bce-Mach Iii LLC on the wellbore schedule.
Completion filings report 4 formation tops, including Anhydrite, Salt, Yates, San Andres.
Its 2 leases have reported 52.3M barrels of oil and 32.1M mcf of gas since the record begins in January 1993, last reporting volume in August 2026. The leases carry 1,126 wells, so these are lease totals, not this well alone.

Surface location
No coordinates on the permit record yet. The RRC's GIS record usually lands within days of issuance; historical master-file permits never carry one.

Every well with a location on file around this well, in any state, nearest first.
Texas locations come from drilling permits, so most older Texas wells have none and are not listed.
